----------------------------------------
+1 for ISO8601. It's cross database, cross platform and lexographically
sortable.
> Inconsistent date format for Metadata.CREATION_DATE and Metadata.LAST_MODIFIED

> Key: TIKA-451
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-451
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: metadata, parser
> Affects Versions: 0.7
> Reporter: Nick Burch
> Priority: Minor
>
> Currently, the PDF Parser does calendar.getTime().toString() which means
> dates end up in your local timezone, and are hard to parse
> The Open Document parsers output in iso 8601 format, which avoids these two
> problems
> The poi ole2 based parsers also output in date.toString() format, with the
> same timezone/parsing problems
> We should probably select one format, and update the parsers to all output in
> it
